      The Compact Oxford English Dictionary defines a calculator as "something used to make mathematical calculations, in particular a small electronic device with a keyboard and a visual display."

      The term could be applied to
        - an abacus or soroban
        - any of a variety of mechanical computation engines, hand-cranked or motor-driven
        - electric or manual desktop machines
        - rotary or slide stylus-driven mechanical calculation aids
        - electronic devices capable of performing mathematical operations, including cell phones.
